API Driven Form Rendering

  • This master’s thesis investigates the challenges and opportunities associated with dynamic form rendering in user interfaces, specifically in the context of Galeria Karstadt Kaufhof (GKK), a key player in the German retail sector. Collaborating with CODUCT Solutions GmbH, this research aims to enhance GKK’s operational efficiency and user experience in their digital transformation journey, focusing on Project Baldeney, a cloud-native platform that automates content management workflows. The thesis begins by outlining the limitations of traditional, static methods of form rendering, highlighting the implications for development time and error frequency. It identifies the fragmentation in the existing API-driven architectures as a critical issue affecting system reliability and user experience. Against this backdrop, the work proposes a unified, API-driven framework to dynamically render forms for many user actions, such as data input and transactions. The research takes a deep dive into existing systems—particularly Informatica’s Product Information Management (PIM) software and the new software in development Article Workbench to identify user experience issues, inefficiencies, and the complexities involved. Through this examination, it offers a targeted solution to integrate various components of form management, like building, parsing, validation, and rendering, into a cohesive system. The thesis aims to contribute to software development and user experience design substantially, by targeting improved development efficiency, reduced errors, and enhanced system reliability. By achieving these objectives, the research aspires to furnish GKK with a robust solution for dynamic form rendering, thereby enhancing both user satisfaction and system performance in the fast-evolving digital landscape.
